Wicker updated for fit-PC2
Today (er, late last night) we publicly released the latest version of Wicker, our Ubuntu-based operating system that runs on every RedPost/Sign. This version is now compatible with the fit-PC2 and includes the following updates:
- 8.04 security updates (we’re still on 8.04 as that’s what the fit-PC2 supports)
- re-worked kernel for compatability with fit-PC2, including SMP support, upgraded to 2.6-24-28 kernel
- fixed timezone issues
- improved setup process, simplified timezone menu
- removed 100MB or so of unneeded files
- upgraded to Firefox 3.5.5
- upgraded Firefox Autohide extension to 1.7.0
- upgraded to Adobe Flash plugin to 10.0.12
- upgraded VLC to 0.9.9a, fixed pink lines sometimes created when scaling video
- simplified fluxbox menu
It’s available for download for the fit-PC2 on SourceForge. We’ll be uploading an updated version for the RedPost/Sign shortly, once we complete testing.
